The Worldchefs brand represents our personality as a strong global network and a global authority on food. When producing print and digital communications for culinary events, websites, social media or any other purpose, it is imperative to always follow these brand guidelines. The brand guidelines were created for use by all Worldchefs members and partners, to guarantee consistency and clarity of the Worldchefs brand across the globe.
To grow brand awareness, it is essential to use our name correctly and consistently in every piece of communication we create. World Association of Chefs’ Societies is always to be shortened to Worldchefs, never to WACS.
